part two: the invisible man

last monday was unusual. on most days, i would not have even acknowledged that fucktard's comments on facebook but i didn't sleep well the night before, my hay fever was bothering me and one of the links he left to stubby dog in a craven comment was a problem, it kept locking up my computer. (i actually do read the opposition, unlike my opposition.) in the meantime, this fucktard started leaving comments and spamming the facebook page with non-pit bull attacks. so now i am a little annoyed and by the time i force quit and restart my browser TWICE on the stubby link, i am becoming more than a little annoyed.

hal's comments started with "your sick" and the typical copy and paste hateful evil nazi hitler bullshit. the only thing missing was all caps and a hormonal hysterical teenage girl. then hal's sidekick showed up to tell me that it is a scientific fact that chihuahuas are more aggressive and mrs batman showed up to quote gandhi. the sidekick's response to my polite request for his science and to correct mrs batman's faulty logic was to challenge me to a fight "If u dont like what im saying dont comment back just come on down to Fayetteville Nc and ill show you how someone fights for truth!" fucking psychopaths, just like their dogs. you can't make this shit up!

hal returns to joust some more. makes more references to hitler, threatens me, calls me adolf and then i then start receiving emails asking me to confirm my sign up request from all sorts of crap on the internet. so i ask hal if he is 12. hal replies "More mature than you and with a much bigger heart. I'm not cold and hateful like you come off." he immediately posts the address of cravendesires.com web host (he thinks he has found my house apparently. LOL) and tells me he will post it everywhere. more adolf, liar, sub-human, hateful yadda yadda yadda... tripe. in the meantime, his fraudulent requests are starting to hit my mailbox pretty hard and one of the spam emails shows me his IP address. what a dumb fucker! of course, everyone of those websites recorded his IP address but one of them SHOWED me the IP address in the confirmation email. LOL!!! when i pointed that out to him, he of course denied it but the spam stopped coming.

the self proclaimed "animal lover" who likes to poke fun at road kill and fight against BSL, racism, discrimination, abortion and all things evil in the world, signed me up for various services on the internet. two of them, i rather enjoyed unsubscribing from. care to guess what one of these special, enlightened, open minded nut jobs signed me up for? the logical guess would be a neo-nazi forum, but you'd be wrong.

nope. no nazi, aryan nation, skinhead, KKK forums for the evil craven. nope the WORST insult hal has for me is to sign me up at lesbian dating sites which reveals hal's true nature. notice
hal didn't lob me with the nazi oppressors, the people he proclaims to be against. he lobbed me with nazi victims. that tells me that hal has contempt for homosexuals, one of the groups that hitler targeted during his ethnic cleansing campaign.

there is a reason why all of these crazy pit bull zealots always stoop to the hitler comparison...

and it's called
PROJECTION
an unconscious psychological defense mechanism used to cope with reality and maintain self image. it occurs when one's own unacceptable or threatening attributes, thoughts and emotions are repressed and then attributed to others.

batman is gone, hal is now the invisible man. he has deleted his comments and erased himself from the internet. the ultimate dine and dash.


question: if i am so evil and hateful, why are the people who call me that deleting their comments and profiles? this is the third one that i know of. if my blogs are so full of lies, why hasn't anyone methodically dissected and discredited them? why is it that every time i turn around, another proud pit bull owner has deleted a video, comment or post that i link to craven desires or the truth blog?

CGC test #5: walking through a crowd and test #8: reaction to another dog

i have a lot more to say on the subject of the CGC but this will do for now.

Test 5: Walking through a crowd

This test demonstrates that the dog can move about politely in pedestrian traffic and is under control in public places. The dog and handler walk around and pass close to several people (at least three). The dog may show some interest in the strangers but should continue to walk with the handler, without evidence of over-exuberance, shyness or resentment. The handler may talk to the dog and encourage or praise the dog throughout the test. The dog should not jump on people in the crowd or strain on the leash.


Test 8: Reaction to another dog

This test demonstrates that the dog can behave politely around other dogs. Two handlers and their dogs approach each other from a distance of about 20 feet, stop, shake hands and exchange pleasantries, and continue on for about 10 feet. The dogs should show no more than casual interest in each other. Neither dog should go to the other dog or its handler.


here are two CGC tests on youtube that beautifully demonstrate how the testers can bend the rules so they can skew the results when they feel like it.

havanese

test #5 starts at 1:20. notice this tiny little dog walking in the middle of a moving wheel chair, a moving walker and a moving cane.

test #8 starts at 2:20. the havanese and handler stop, shake hands and then make a second pass.




pit bull

test #5 begins at 2:40 and test #8 follows it immediately. notice how the pit bull weaves in and out of stationary people. maybe they are practicing "stand like a tree"?

in test #8 the pit bull and his handler greet another man and pit bull. notice how the two do not even get close enough to complete the required hand shake, yet the pit bull passed.



did you all hear the nutter in the crowd yell "make 'em proud!" in test #5 which should be renamed "reaction to act like a tree".

WHO HERE THINKS THE CGC TEST IS FAIRLY AND CONSISTENTLY EXECUTED?

i am extremely well read when it comes to the pit bull community and the ATTS and the CGC tests. many of them consider the CGC to be the easier of the two.


so, ryan, do you have video of your CGC test to share?

the canine good citizen test

oh pit nutter, you have so much to learn about the world.

you don't realize that the same problems with the ATTS exist with the CGC. the test is only good as the tester and there is tester and testee bias. and as sharon pointed out, a lot people can successfully get their dogs through the 5-10 minute exercise.

here's a perfect example. this is simba the mastiff going through the CGC. the tester is an APBT owner. he uses his own dog, MONTAUK, for the test number 8, reaction to another dog.

the really critical part of this test is from roughly 3:00 - 4:00. at 3 minutes, notice the tester giving commands in what sounds like french and look to the far right of the screen at his dog.



youtube link

so, what do we know about this tester?

ROBERT BOUDREAU has a dog training business. he is or was the president of the LONE STAR STATE APBT CLUB. he testified against dangerous dog HB1982 in 2009, a texas bill that would increase penalties against people when their dogs bite. the details of HB1982 can be found here. he is a tester for the CGC and the ATTS and is an agitator/tester for the Fila assoc. he clearly has a vested interest in seeing grippers and other dangerous dogs passing these tests.

and here's what we know about the pit bull that's "supposed to be trained".



montauk has more medals than stubby!

Did you know...

that the state of california has a ban on ferrets?

yep. the state prohibits their ownership.

why?

1) rabies
2) agribusiness threat
3) aggression

well, that the state's official party line but rumor has it that those occupying positions of power are just mean, ignorant racists. (lola brand and colleen carrigan are feverishly working to substantiate these rumors)


yep. ferrets get a badrap. the media's hate campaign against ferrets has been quite successful according to the golden state ferret society. there have only been a dozen cases of rabid ferrets in the last 300 years while DOGS "kill 17 people per year and account for thousands of rabies cases." (these numbers are now obsolete. yearly dog bite related fatalities have just about doubled since the pit bull's status was upgraded from villain to victim.)

yep. and ferret owners are forced underground to live in shame. they have formed clandestine groups and are gearing up for a fight. they are tired of the discrimination and threat of $1000 fines, 6 months in jail and the confiscation of their misunderstood FAMILY MEMBERS. ferret owners want to enjoy the same perks as the whiny dangerous dog owners; education campaigns, lenient laws, warnings, citations with fines reminiscent of the 1940's and of course pro bono lawyers with unlimited access to the court of appeals.

the responsible ferret owners have launched a facebook campaign, care petition and hired guerrilla economics to produce bogus statistics and sleazy lawyers to speak at california's next legislative session. they also received advice from seasoned pit bull advocates: until they can officially scorch california's earth call them rabbit mixes and form a scientific sounding ferret fanciers research council and website to begin the shameless promotion of nanny rabbit mixes, blame chinchillas and the weather.

according to Chris Lewis:
But it's important to remember, that even the most pessimistic statistics on ferrets show that a ferret is about a thousand times *less* likely to cause injury than a dog. Indeed, every year there are hundreds of very serious or fatal dog attacks in the US alone. Worst case statistics show approximately 12 ferret attacks ever recorded in the US.

that's the ticket!

The Nature of the Beasts: Illinois pit bull bullies

dysmorphic empaths

empathy, is it possible to have too much? can empathy be pathological?

keep that question in mind as you read about CHEYA, a pit bull/lab mix available for adoption in FABBtown.



Lab/Pit Bull mix. Very possessive. Finally have her so she will not take off after other animals IF they are leashed. But she will take off after any unleashed animal. I have been drug through parking lots, down stairs, into doors and rockeries. I can not trust her enough to walk her without hurting me. So she lives her life in a small basement apartment and it is not fair to her or me. She needs someone with more time to work with her or land where she can roam and keep others out. This animal was dumped on me several years ago now. At one time a previous owner wanted her back but after three weeks, it was obvious the dog was not happy there. Cheya had ate their carpet and urinated on all furniture. I don't have that problem, but if she can get to furniture stuffing, she will pull it out and eat it. I need to leave for an extended time in August and NO one is willing to dog sit her so I really need her gone before then.


seriously. can empathy be a handicap? do you think it is possible to have too much empathy? or maybe distorted empathy? can an individual have so much empathy that it impairs logic and reason? i don't know but i have been thinking about this question a lot lately. the no kill kooks at the lexus project who file petitions for a stay of execution for a dog that KILLS a human is at the root of the puzzle. the axis 2 cluster B personality disorders are well represented among pit nutters. but i have a problem with absolutes. they can't all be empathy challenged cluster Bs. there has to be other explanations. so i am posing the question here. what do you think? can empathy be a bad thing?

out of the labyrinth



i can't remember when i started researching this topic. i started writing it late last december. i really hate going into the dog fighting world. every time i go there looking for answers, i get lost in it. before i know it, it's 4 am and i have forgotten what it was that i was looking for.

after at least a half a dozen missed, self imposed deadlines, the man-biters were culled myth has finally been busted.

thank you for being patient.

Boycott Bluff City Tours in Godfrey, Illinois


"he's Norman Bates, he just uses a dog to slash women, instead of a knife!"

50 year old GREG GELZINNIS and his 73 year old mother and business partner PATRICIA GELZINNIS own a pit bull named PRECIOUS and she just scored her third human mauling (that we know of). PRECIOUS also mauled at least one dog. one of her human victims was mauled as she walked through the door of BLUFF CITY TOURS and another was mauled while jogging. the GELZINNISES can not or will not control their frankenmauler and the state of illinois claims that there is nothing they can do, so... the only thing left to do is pull a changedotorg and call for a boycott.

put the lotion in the basket and read all about PRECIOUS the pit bull at pit bull attacks and dog fighting in illinois. and be sure to check out ANIMAL UNCONTROL.
